Description

A choreographic piece exploring states of transparency and opacity.
The project explores perception as a phenomenon arising from the relationship between outline and matter, presenting a hypnagogic landscape traversed by ‘lantern-bodies’ and ‘mountain-people’.

The play explores an ‘ecology of perception’, in which the body ceases to be the absolute centre of experience and coexists with the light that reveals and dissolves it, with the sound that alters its presence, and with places that overlap, intermingle and blur the boundaries.

The project stems from an invitation from the Escola Superior de Dança and the São Luiz Municipal Theatre to collaborate between Catarina Miranda and the third-year students, with music by Luís Pestana and lighting design by Pedro Guimarães and Ana Luísa Novais.
